I originally posted this on my MySpace Blog on December 6, 2006. Short and sweet. I did include a BONUS video with this post then and you’ll get it here now, too. Still like the Afro-punk style. The song is a timeless disco classic. The beauty of Africa is breathtaking. The AIDS epidemic and its affect on Africa is something we should never forget. And I still prefer the remix. Really digs into my soul and makes me want to groove.

Side Note: Didn’t dig the Tabasco Red hair and nose-ring then, but it doesn’t look so Tabasco Red in the remix video. Likin’ the look there now. Go figure.

9. “Together Again” from The Velvet Rope Released: October 21, 1997

A song for all the friends she’s lost to the AIDS epedemic. I like the African-punk-style to it. It’s obviously set in Africa because AIDS is such a detrimentally serious issue there. And World’s AIDS Day was just last week, so consider it my nod to that.

***BONUS***

A whole different remix with a whole different video. I always kinda’ liked this version better. It’s just a more mellow, deeper, more personal groove. And it’s also called the DEEPER REMIX.

From what I’ve heard, she’s supposed to be coming back home from a friend’s funeral and that’s why she’s wearing all black. It was directed by her ex-husband, Renee Elizondo.
